Weeks 10-12 Of My Pregnancy | Dear Baby Hurd

Dear Baby Hurd,

I still am thanking God for your life every day. These past
two weeks have really been going great for me and your father. In the last letter that you read from me, I told you that your father and I was going
through a difficult time with seeing eye to eye. I can now say that we have
truly moved passed the bitter sweetness that affected us weeks ago. Mama’s
hormones are getting back to normal. I am still a major emotional being as your
father always jokes about, however things have been solid.

My mother which is
one of your grandmothers is very excited that I am pregnant with you. My mother
name is Lilly, can you believe that your grandmother has already bought a whole
lot of baby clothes just for you. The funny part about her excitement is that
she does not know, just like me or your father what is your gender. Your father’s
mother and father Mrs. And Mr. Hurd are also excited to see you and cannot wait
to find out your gender too! I hope you are smiling, because you are already
deeply loved and you are not even here yet.

I have been doing a lot of talking to you. Just as much
talking as I did when I first found out that I was pregnant with you. I share
with you how truly blessed you are and my thoughts on life, bible verses, and
even just random things that come to mind. There have been days that I have
just laid in the bed and wonder what will you be like?

Will you be just as
understanding, bubbly, and on fire for Jesus as I imagine you to be? To be
honest, I pray that you grow to learn and cherish the essence of Jesus within
your spirit.

Also, I want you to know that you have not caused Mama no
nausea or even morning sickness these past two weeks. You have Mama feeling
almost back to her normal self. I have been super gassy and I think that I am
going to TRY to stray away from red beans and rice for your father’s well-being. I
felt bad for him since he kept smelling my farts and I’m sure he needed a gas
mask! Lol!

Baby Hurd, Mama knows you probably was loving those red beans and rice, but
you really took my flatulence to a totally different level. I think that it is
so funny and adorable too! You probably are reading this letter thinking, “Oh
my God, Mama!”

Like I have been stated, I won’t sugar coat the truth for
you. In this world that you shall come into, it is very cold-hearted and the
most vicious people with evil intentions will sugar coat the truth and sell it
to your ears as if it was candy. You will learn all that your father and I will
eventually teach you. Hopefully, you love skillet meals when you grow older as
much as you do while in my belly too. Mama loves you unconditionally.
